Who will Challenge Powell in 5a?

Powell is on a roll.  They have played a few good teams, and a few not so good teams.  I think the game of the year will be when West visits Powell after fall break.  That game should decide the region champion.  Powell looks to be getting better and better as the season goes on.  There passing attack is really unstoppable.  They go 6 deep at WR, and they all can play.  Most teams are lucky to have 1-2 good WR.   Your thoughts?

I never could understand why their coach left Powell originally to go that dump in Seymour. It may be called a new name now but it will always have Harrison-Chilhowee all over it to me. That was the worst football teams I've ever seen in my life and the field & seating there is an afterthought. Couldn't imagine what would attract him to that place.

I don't live in the area anymore but I happened to be in town this weekend and caught the West vs HVA game last night. West was dominant from the first play housing the opening handoff for a Touchdown and scored on every possession they had the ball in the first half, but one I can think of. 

They were balanced on offense and the QB threw 2 passes that were perfectly thrown and caught by the receiver for TDs. The defense was its usually stout self with speed all over the field.

Their kicker impressed me by making a 47 yard fg that could have been good from 52.

Don't know much about Powell but their record but I'm sure that will be a great game....only sorry I won't be in town to see it.

$$$$

That and the ability to build a program his way from scratch.

I'm thinking only West has a chance. South-Doyle looked good early, but after losing their starting  QB and the way the got hammered by Anderson County , I don't see them as a threat. 

And just think..Coach "Mud Flap " Matt Lowe is just getting started!:thumb:

I don't think you really understand how one dimensional South Doyle made their offense during that Anderson County game. Their backup QB has been looking just as good as Brang since that game. And rumor has it Brang will be back in time for playoffs. Bring Powell South of the River for the final game of the season and you'll see what the Cherokees are made of. That South Doyle defense is nasty this year and Elijah Young is only playing offense.

West will be a great game in a few weeks. Could even get a rematch in the quarterfinals. If they hook up with Central in the playoffs, that would be a good one as well.

Can't speak for the rest of the state but Henry County is always a contender, plus you've got Beech and Gallatin out there.

IMO, what could trip Powell up are potential rematches with West and SD.

    • He resigned smh, and have you ever heard of charged but not convicted. Some people in this county baffle me with their need to slander others. Have you asked any of the 30+ parents that signed a petition to get him reinstated at the board meeting this week how they feel about this? Just let it play out, at the end of the day the only people that will bring TC back are the ones that know what its about at its core.    People hate losing and they aren't used to it at TC. I for 1, and I'm sure others too, understand having a dip in talent and not being able to compete for a state title every year. But in the past, TC teams have outworked more talented teams, they didn't continuously lose the turnover battle, they didn't commit 8+ penalties in several games each season, and I believe several of the folks in town that want Blake out feel as if he is neglecting the history of the program. This is from a source that used to be extremely close to the program (not me lol), Blake gets out of school midday and the players show up and there is no practice plan or itinerary.  I also understand those that are on team Blake, when he has loads of talent, he wins. He does know football and he is a tremendous DC, and if the rumors are true then he will do great things. As for the board member issue, it is what it is, everyone that's true to the county know that and nothing has changed. I agree though that they should strive to make the facilities as good as we can. And as far as potential candidates, I agree there is very few options. West, Vetetoe (yes I know), and couple others that could have some interest. Whatever happens is massive for the program during a pivotal time before the next big wave of stars make their way through. 
    • McKenzie had no trouble with Huntingdon.  
    • Has BA landed any cornfed cowboys to block up front?
    • Yea I agree I will say tho I was a big “ v “ fan if an  opening ever did happen I think it would’ve been good to see him have a shot coming from a power house like Oakland. I’m sure he’s learned a lot from Kevin.  I bet he would bring a really good offense scheme IMO But after all this I just dunno anymore.  Whatever happens with the rumors an such if it did come to and opening I think this messes it all up.  The board members dreams are slowly slipping away now. I haven’t lived there for awhile I just hear what I hear, but my question is would there be any good potential candidates?? That’s why I don’t understand why people want b s out so bad who else could do any better ?? IMO there’s nothing attractive about it? As I stated earlier I went to the last game last year and taking a leak in a porta Potty is pretty sad and still nothing being done they say ..
